Arts, science and history

TEMPORARY CLOSURE Bagshaw Museum is closed for structural work and gallery developments jointly funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and Kirklees Council. The museum is due to reopen later in 2009. A dramatic Victorian former mill owner's house set in 36 acres of parkland and ancient woodland, the museum is host to a wide range of unusual and exciting collections of things from around the globe. Once the home of George Sheard from 1875-1902, this Gothic house became a museum in 1911 and was named after its first curator, Walter Bagshaw.
